Mighty Morphin Power Rangers #1: Rita Repulsa’s Attitude Adjustment

When an ancient stone idol comes to life and starts blasting everything in its path with a morphing ray, it looks like the world is in pretty deep trouble; but it’s nothing compared to the havoc unleashed when Rita Repulsa gets her hands on it! The Mighty Morphin Power Rangers join the fray, but this new baddie has extra muscle from Squatt and the Putty Patrol. If the team doesn’t get a little help of their own from a trusted friend, this latest mission may be their last!

Twenty years ago, the Power Rangers burst on the scene in an explosion of colorful combat, bizarre monsters, incredible robot battles, and Megazord-sized fun, spawning a global phenomenon and an ever-expanding storytelling universe. Papercutz is proud to present the long-awaited continuing adventures of the team that started it all!

What happens when Scorpion from the Mortal Kombat series goes toe to toe with the White Ranger from Mighty Morphin Power Rangers?

One of the coolest fight scenes ever done. No seriously, it’s pretty awesome. Check out the video below and take note – the White Ranger is indeed voiced by Jason David Frank, who played the White Ranger during Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.

What did you think? Was that not totally awesome!? Video done by Bat in the Sun, who just do really awesome things all the time.

Is this the reason why Jason has refused to be a part of the MMPR Fan film? What sort of deals did he reach with Saban?  Stay tuned for more news as it develops.

… For 1 Million Dollars!!

Simon Cowell’s dignity has a price — $1 million — because that’s how much someone paid to get him to sing the “Power Rangers” theme song … in front of a giant crowd of rich people … and TMZ has the hilarious video.

Here’s what happened: Simon was attending a fundraiser in Beverly Hills last night, and billionaire “Power Rangers” creator Haim Saban offered to donate $1 million if Simon sang the show’s theme song.

And Simon actually did it. It’s epic.

There’s a pretty great twist at the end as well, resulting in Simon paying $250,000 of his own money. Watch the video over at TMZ.

Coming to you on November 30th, 2013, the Power Rangers Megaforce will battle Vrak and the Loogies on your Nintendo 3DS! And in celebration of the 20th Anniversary of Power Rangers, the game will feature unlockable skins for the original Mighty Morphin Power Rangers!

The game is a classic side-scrolling action game. Yours truly got a chance to play test it a bit at San Diego Comic Con 2013 and while I had no idea what I was doing (I’m old, these whippersnapper games are hard for me) my buddy Fury Diamond at RangerCrew.com seemed to get the hang of it (I couldn’t figure out how to get past a wall…..) All in all, it was a fun experience playing the game!

For some screenshots and some video clips of this upcoming game, including images and video of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers skins in action, head on over to Fury Diamond‘s blog, Samurai Cast Blog!

Thanks again to Fury Diamond!

The ultimate Power Rangers DVD collection is only a couple of months away (December 3rd) from being at your doorsteps. With a limited run of 2000 copies being made, each individually numbered, time is running out for you to order your set! To help influence your decision, Brian Ward of Shout! Factory took to YouTube to give you a little insight on what the DVD of bonus features that’s exclusive to this set has to offer you.

  • Music retrospective with Ron Wasserman
  • Writing the Legacy with Tony Oliver, Doug Sloan, Jackie Marachand, and more
  • A look at the Villains with Robert Axelrod, Barbara Goodsend, Vernon Wells, and more
  • The SDCC 2012 20th Anniversary Panel
  • Green Ranger Kata
  • And more!

This set, along with every single season of Power Rangers spanning from the first episode of Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers to the last episode of the current season of Power Rangers Megaforce, comes with a 100 page booklet, a total of 6 DVDs of bonus features (1 DVD being the exclusive content listed above), and probably the coolest DVD holder known to mankind with the Red Ranger helmet (note: you can’t wear it).

Pre-order your copy by clicking here! Keep in mind, it’s a steep $650 but can you really pass up this opportunity?

NOTE: It was stated back around SDCC 2013 (but not covered much) that the ONLY way to get Samurai/Super Samurai/Megaforce complete seasons was to purchase this collection, as Lionsgate holds the DVD rights to these new seasons. We will look in to this and see if that statement is still true.
